What software for old Nomad

Hello
I picked up a couple of used older Nomad's, a 6gb Jukebox and a 64kb Nomad II MG.
But I didn't get the drivers or software to go with it. I went to the creative download site but am not sure what to use. Can someone tell me what software to download for these ? I'll be using it with an XP system.
Thanks in advance
Jim

Hi Jim
Try here for your Jukebox 6GB:
http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=0&details=
and here for your Nomad II:
http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=0&details=
Use the drivers and latest firmware for each of the players, get MediaSource from the Jukebox list, and the Nomad II pack for MediaSource from the Nomad list.
MediaSource lets you store and organize your music on your PC and then transfer it to your players.

What software for business cards ?

What software can I use to create business cards except Word ? Thanks

When I did this allot, I would use photoshop and illustrator in order to create any logos, or images that I wanted. From there I would use Adobe In-Design in order to do the actual layout, and to make them multi up on a page for printing. Just remember when you are doing your layout that a standard business card is 2" tall by 3.5" wide. Also remember when you are setting them onto a page for printing that "MOST" printers will not print within .25" of the edge of a piece of paper. With that in mind you will need to make sure that you either compensate and shift all of your content in on the page in order to keep it from being a problem, or make sure that nothing is printed (including any background) within .25" of the edge of the card itself. You can set up cards to get 12 individual cards onto a single sheet by setting them up into a landscape format and placing your first card in top left corner of that sheet, then do 3 cards across, and 4 cards down on the page.
There are also LOTS of business card specific programs out there that you can try out, but I found that I got best results by using the programs that I mentioned above.

What software for print production (magazine)? InDesign or other...

I am new in the field of print production. Do you have a favorite software for this field? I do have CS3 but is the Web premium and it does not have InDesign. Should I buy it? Or, is there another one more user-friendly and easy to work with printing companies.

Hi Numacr,
This is a question with a potentially long answer. I am a professional designer and web developer. I've done all forms of print production and web production.
In a nutshell... the industry standards change from time to time. Fortunately for you, they've recently changed over the past few years. Now, unless you have publications or ads going to a printer in a small town somewhere with older presses and such, you will be just fine with the Adobe CS3 design suite.
Industry standard software are as follows:
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe Illustrator
Adobe InDesign
Adobe Acrobat Pro
Unless you're doing large format printing (ie. banners, billboards, etc.) you are pretty much able to send a high-res PDF file. Sometimes you can even send the InDesign or Illustrator files to the printer.
I'd also suggest joining an InDesign group online... go to Adobe's website to check it all out.
The other option for a page layout program is Quark, but I wouldn't recommend it. They've only recently come around to improve their software, but it's too late. Pretty much everyone is now using Adobe InDesign.
Hope this helps.

Available software for old iBook & G4tower?

I inherited a 14 inch iBook from my mother running 10.4.11 & I also have an old G4 tower running 10.4.11 & OS 9. Is there any newer OS system I can install that would be compatible with either of these, and where would I get such a thing? What are the security risks accessing the internet using an older browser that I cannot update anymore? Does it hurt to browse sites as long as I avoid doing anything financial? Is there any point in try to update these older computers and still trying to use them. I have had no problem networking them with my newer iMac running Maverick. My husband would like to use the older computers to browse the internet for information on mountain climbing.

Mac OS X 10.5.8 is the newest system that will run on G4s as long as they are a minimum of 867 Mhz (dual processor 800 Mhz doesn't count, and 1 Ghz and higher are more than 867 Mhz).
The disadvantage is that unless the tower is the right model, you'll lose access to Mac OS 9:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1757 (tells you which towers can boot into 9 & 10.5).
The iBook G4 can only use Classic, which is gone in Mac OS X 10.5 and later.
Cloning the system to a Firewire external hard drive is possible to maintain the older operating system as it was before, with older versions of Carbon Copy Cloner or Superduper, and should be done prior to any upgrade or software install anyway. Except for the original PCI PowerMac G4 (which is too slow for 10.5 anyway), you can boot off Firewire hard drives Mac OS X. A second internal hard disk on the tower for 10.4 is another possibility. But Parallel ATA hard drives are getting scarcer for that option. And may need a jumper to handle the slower bus speed. Disk Utility can be used to format the drive Apple Partition map so the operating system can be installed. GUID is not understood by most PowerPC 10.4 systems.
http://www.apple.com/usergroups/ is a good source for finding people with older software. Otherwise it really is hit and miss with search engines such as C!Net & Macupdate. Do not download MacKeeper or any system cache cleaning software, whatever you do.

Imovie - software for old Notebook running OSX 10.6

What software for Blackberry 6230?

I got a used phone from a friend and do not have the installation CD software, how would I go about making it so I can view my organizer and such on my computer, what downloads do I need and where do I get them? Thank you in advance for your help.

You need to download BlackBerry Desktop Manager. Then configure it to sync your BlackBerry with your organizer.

Any Software for Old Style 23" Cinema Display?

I just bought a second hand 23" Cinema Display (plastic casing) and it is gorgeous. Unfortunately the previous owner did not have the box or any of the accompanying literature or software.
It all works fine and the picture quality is excellent with none of the issues that have been reported on the new Al 23" model. However, I can't quite fathom out how the power button is supposed to work. I can wake the monitor and Mac from sleep yet that seems to be the limits of its functionality. Should it do anything else like put the monitor and Mac to sleep or shut them down?
Is there any software that I should have to add a few more capabilities? I've seen mention of Apple Display Software elsewhere. Is that required if I am running Mac OS 10.4.2?
If so is there anywhere that I can download that from? Also I would like a copy of the user manual even if it's just in PDF form. Is there a URL for that? The only one I could find was for the 22" Cinema Display.
Thanks in advance,
Stuart

Here's a little Applescript I've put in place to sleep the screen a minute after it's executed, provided I don't press a key or move the mouse. I saved it as an application and bound it to an unused key on my keyboard.
do shell script ("pmset force displaysleep 1")
do shell script ("sleep 90")
do shell script ("pmset force displaysleep 15")
What this does is change the values for the EnergySaver in memory (the defaults remain unchanged) to sleep the display after 1 minute of inactivity (the minimum setting), then wait for 90 seconds then set it to 15 minutes (my default, but you can change this value to whatever your default is).
So if I press the button on my keyboard and leave my desk the screen will now sleep 1 minute later. If I use my Mac within that minute then it won't sleep.
I would love to be able to immediately put the screen to sleep. Setting the displaysleep value to 0 actually turns off the Energy Saver for the screen, so that's not an option.

What software for someone to help with Premiere Pro CS5

For the last 9 months I have been processing video using PP CS5 for a small church. The church is now recording several programs and I would like some help in processing the videos that are created. The church is small so probably can't afford a copy of the software that I have, so I will have to propose some options for them. The two that come to my mind are:
1) Adobe allows me to have two machines loaded with Master Collection CS5. Since I am only using one, I could install on another person's computer. I think this may be somewhere less than the spirit of the EULA. Besides, I am not real anxious to do this anyway.
2) Help them find a low cost alternative. I think they may be able to do this for $100 to $200 for the software. All they need to do is to trim the ends of the extra film, then add some title slides and save to Flash for the website and burn to DVD for archive. As an option, they might be able to make a menu for the archive DVD.
Anybody know of any other options or suggested low end video editing software. BTW, I took a quick look at Cyberlink PowerDirector and I could not find a way to save in the Flash format - other than creating a Youtube account and then sending the video directly to Youtube.

Colin,
You are correct. PrE will handle AVCHD on an adequate computer. It will edit, allow Titles, PiP, many Effects (too many are Auto only, however), and can Export/Share to Flash, with one big caveat - there is NO Transparency available from PrE, like from PrPro, so no sprites, etc. Just plain FLV.
The files that PrE works from will work in PrPro and vice versa. However, the use of a PrPro PRPROJ (Project file) will NOT work in PrE. A PrE PREL (Project file) might Open in PrPro, but there are a bunch of things that can keep this from working correctly: Themes/Instant Movies, some New Blue FX Effects and Transitions, etc., that are specific to PrE. Otherwise, if PrE and PrPro are contemporary, say PrE 9 and PrPro CS5, and not of that "stuff" is used, it is likely that a PrE 9 PREL will Open in PrPro CS5 - I can do that with PrE 4 and PrPro 2.0/CS2, as they were contemporaries. I cannot Open later PrE PREL's in PrPro 2.0/CS2, and only get a failure.
For simple editing (especially if one is not intending on migrating between PrE & PrPro), PrE should fit the bill nicely. Much more is done "behind the scenes," and the GUI is more of a "Big-Button" solution, than PrPro, where one has much more control, though much needs to be done by hand. There are also some MAJOR layout differences between the two GUI's, but with some training, one can go with either pretty easily.
Hope that this helps,
Hunt

Need Power Cord For Old Nomad Jukebox, PLE

I need the a.c power cord, it is a 9v cord and I can really use one, Any help ?
Please email if you have one, THANKS !!

i think that will be pretty hard to come by.
try ebay you may be able to get one.
but if you cant...
go out and get yourself a REGULATED multivoltage power supply.
you know, those battery elimators with the 8 or so interchangeable plugs.
if its not regulated you run the risk of putting too much power into your jukebox.
just make sure it has a plug that fits your jukebox and you match up the polarity then your set.
go for something with at least a amp output however.
go for more then that if you can...
good luck

i have a mid 2011 i5 imac and i want to transfer my vinyl records to itunes but i dont know what usb turntable would be best for my imac that has compatible software for transfer to itunes

Hallo,
I use an Akai usb turntable with the Audacity sw delivered with it. To monitor during recording I also use the LineIn utility (all this on a Macbook Pro with Mavericks).
It works fine, only the input volume of the usb audio port cannot be adjusted (at least I did not yet discover how to do it) and the volume of the music is lower than other music imported into iTunes from CD or iTunes store, but still acceptable.
Success, Jean

To learn how to defend yourself from the threat of adware read How to install adware.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver movies or other copyrighted content "for free".
The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.

What software do you use for rich media ad development?

I am a flash designer that would like to start developing rich media ads. My my full-time job, I am designing and developing banner ads but they are just normal banners with clickTags and flashing buttons.
I would like to make them more interesting and widget like too, passing data via the database or allowing users to play and interact some how.
How do you think is the best way for me to learn more about rich media adds? Should I try a trial membership with a place like Eyeblaster? I have heard about their plug-in for Flash that allow you to develop rich media. But is that a good system? Do you know others? What is it like. And do you normally just get into rich media ad dev because of clients or is it mainly used by ad agencies? Also, for those who use it at work or on banners, did you recommend / purchase it or was it purchased by your company? Are you a designer or developer? Does it work with AS 2.0 or AS 3.0 or both?
Thx for reading and any replies thanks so much!
Ms.Lee

Most web advertising is still done with AS 2 because usually an on release event handler is required for tracking the clicks.
A lot of rich media ads are produced by agencies. Or if a website sells banner ads, the company usually purchases the software for the in-house designer/developer to use and charges clients more for rich media ads. Companies like Eyeblaster usually charge based on the file size of the rich media ad, so they usually cost more to serve than regular old banner ads (and can take a lot longer to create) which is why they are more expensive for the client. Some clients want more than will fit or look good in a banner in which case rich media can be a good solution.

Installed my new canon camera n trashed my old canon software but when i connected camera its telling me that connection software for another canon is running n software can't be launched

Installed a canon A3400IS camera to my OS X Yosemite computer n trashed my old canon camera software but the when i connect the camera its telling me that the connection software for another canon is running and that the software cannot be launched

Take a look at the specs of your camera:
http://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/cameras/powershot-camera-specials/powe rshot-sx500-is
First, get yourself a decent brand (I have Verbatim and Sandisk) absolute minimum 4 GB, better 8 or 16 GB SDHC card, class 6 or higher (that number is in a little circle on the front of the card and means it can handle faster read/write speeds).
Presumably, you are shooting in 1280 HD which will result in MUCH bigger file sizes. My camera does both 1280 HD as well as 1920 HD and in the latter, a 3 minute video easily uses up to 3 GB.
Once you get a larger capacity card, you will be able to shoot up to 20 - 30 minute videos (depending on the card capacity - they have maximums). When I shoot video, I only use 16 and 32 GB cards. You might also call Canon and ask them two questions (or email their support, they're pretty good at answering):
1. What is the maximum card capacity the SX500 can handle (cards can go to 32, 64, 128 GB)?
2. What is the highest class number the camera can handle? (I said to get at least class 6; many more now come in class 10, and then there is a brand new version called UHS-1). If you get a card that is too fast, it will result in lower quality videos/pics. When I got my SX40, I called Canon and got their recommendations on cards because I was not happy with the quality output of the cards I had.
And, lastly, make sure that, if you are using a card reader, it is fast enough to read whatever card class you will be using - that is important as that determines how long it takes it transfer the stuff to the computer. Also, I'd suggest using a USB card reader rather than attaching the camera - it makes it so much easier to handle and saves the camera battery.
Start with these suggestions and you'll find that you'll be happy with the output of your camera.
